@BrittanyBoswe11 With all due respect good luck finding a program that gives defensive players as much run as Barnes. Boswell was playing 30 minutes a night after a horrible freshman season. Acting as if it was a role issue is insane to me.
@zerubbable8639@Clowfb Lmaoooo maybe the reason UK can’t get out of the first weekend is because they don’t have any players that set screens/play defense?
Maybe Kentucky should try that! And they’ll make 3 straight elite 8s like we did.
@matthewwinick@BigOrangeNatty@3PointSniper_ He moves okay. He was the Vols third most mobile big before Phillips went down. I’m not sure he’s much more mobile than Brown.
He’s a horrible defender honestly. He’s a very very talented offensive player though, would have liked to keep him.
@FOXSportsKnox Massive 🖕🏿 to Barnes. Boswell was utter trash as a freshman and Barnes gave him a starting role, when 90% of coaches would have told him to kick rocks last offseason.
Appreciate the effort but if you don’t wanna be here then good riddance.
@HaterReport I get it, I love having more passion in the game the nba is missing a lot of it. But this is a technical foul all day every day I’ve never seen a coach get away with this.
@thrillhouse416@VicNobu@DoeJumars@ShamsCharania Okay, watch regular season college hoops then watch regular season nba. Effort level is simply not close, everyone can see it with eyes.
Whether that is a season length problem, or lazy players, or both (it’s both), it needs to stop.
This was a Rick Barnes masterclass. As good of a gameplan as I've seen from him since he got here. Completely dictated the terms of agreement for the final 35 minutes. Respect is owed
@drakectollshow You are one of the dumbest people alive when it comes to basketball knowledge. What a misfire on the Vols game. Iowa State clearly the less talented team. No 🐎
@thrillhouse416@DoeJumars@ShamsCharania You realize if the players said they weren’t shutting down there is nothing a team could do to stop them.
They never do that.
Watch the ncaa tournament and tell me nba players play with the same effort. You’d be lying.
@VicNobu@thrillhouse416@DoeJumars@ShamsCharania He’s 100% correct btw. If the players said “I’m not shutting down, I’m healthy”, the team could do nothing. They never do that shit.
There is a malaise in the nba. Watch the ncaa tournament effort and watch nba games and tell me that’s the same.
@nick_marv This was an absolute perfect example for anyone watching yall for the first time, I agree.
How was watching Tennessee for the first time? A little better than you thought huh. Wasn’t close. Too small 🤏
